Just about everybody and their brother has seen the "Top 100 Bass Lakes" releases put out by B.A.S.S. (if you haven't, click here for the 2013 list), but I was wondering what some of the guys on here think about the best lakes in this region.  For me, the fishing is always the main draw to a lake but the experience can be elevated or dampened by other factors such as heavy boat traffic and ease of access, among others.

 

Just hoping to get some input - which lakes and why you like 'em?

Monroe is not that bad and Harden lake is well known for stripers! Good luck!
